Thank you!!

Finally, I was quick enough to get one I wanted! Now to decide what to unload...
People keep asking me what's up with the practice knives and why they are priced differently from customs. I think I have answered this on a number of occasions, but basically these are my earlier knives, in a good steel with a good HT. I will regrind and refinish them, and though they will be on a thinner side, they will perform on par or better than many knives out there.
I can't bring to discard them as they have a lot of work in them already. From a business stand point it doesn't make a lot of sense, but for me personally, I would be happier to know that these knives find homes. Plus, I want you guys feel like you got a good deal and I recognize that not everybody can spend $400+ on a knife, so hopefully some of these could make to these folks.
Thanks,
M

no, thank You good sir. I wasn't sure if HT and grind were of your current "format" or not. (in Phil Collins sing-song) but now I know....
